Bye Bye IPL, hello Q50 Sport!!
The only way to compare apples to apples is the selling price. The base Q starts at a very competitive $36,700 and the Q sport is $43,200 which includes all the premium options. AWD add $2k to any model. At these price levels, the Q is definitely priced in the Benz C-Class level, not the E Class.

Congratulations on the twins! My sincerest condolences for the loss of your coupe.
Both cars are awesome. Are you enjoying all the new electronics? I hear the new nav system has a google auto-drive option. You can ride in the rear seat if you want. Voice Command: "Q, Drive me home, stop at Conoco, call Conoco and tell them to fill your tank, mute all calls, I'm going to take a nap."

Yeah, that's always an problem with new models; takes a while for the aftermarket guys to catch up.
Still a sweet ride; enjoy it!

I actually kind of like the way the Q50 looks, but not as much as the coupe (especially in Malbec Black). I never minded the wheel gap on my 2012 coupe, but the wheel gap on the Q50 is awful. Too bad it will not be fixed for a while.
Although, I never understood why having two children makes it impossible to have a coupe. Unless you have more than just the twins, anyways. The back seats comfortably seat people who are at least as tall as 5'7", so unless you expect your twin girls to each grow taller than that, why would you need more space? Not to mention that if they are newborn twin girls, they will not be reaching 5'7"+ for a while, and the vast majority of people do not keep cars that long anyways.

True, but trying to put two babies in two baby seats and strapping them in is just to time consuming. Especially as the winter is coming.
That and my rear wheel drive IPL in the snow here in Ohio was the worst, even with Blizzacks

You cannot be serious with this... Nobody will be comfortable in the coupe back seat. Even with a 5'4 driver having the seat all the way up

It's not having them back there that's a PITA, it's getting them in and out.
They are babies, they can't strap thenselves in...
